| This was the worst sports anime ever. They only played baseball for like five minutes. And it took them 25 eps to get there! 2/10 |

helski666 said: I really wanted to write about a lot of things when it came to this adaptation (sometimes I did xD) but I did not feel the need to do so (in most cases). Alas it is the end of the 1st season and I would like to comment in a way fitting this show. Unfortunately Kengo stole my catch phrase I wanted to use to describe the show, namely: Little Busters Saikou! i think Kengo stole that from Kyousuke and Riki |
leetshoe said: This was the worst sports anime ever. They only played baseball for like five minutes. And it took them 25 eps to get there! 2/10 one match and a few practices approx 3mins shown each time and somehow your labeling this a sports anime? |
| How many times does Riki need to reiterate for the audience how Kyousuke helped him when he was a kid, and that he has Narcolepsy? It feels like he goes over it every other episode. Overall the episode wasn't bad. I am kind of disappointed that they just glossed over the baseball game though - the season needed a climax! What better way to end it than show the baseball game they've been working for for 25 episodes?! As it stands now, it just kind of ends with a whimper. Having watched all 26 episodes, my overall score of this show is a 6/10. Not awful, but not really good. The first ten episodes of the season were almost torturous in how boring they were, and by the time the show FINALLY started to pick up, it was already halfway over. Some of the girl's routes were also butchered and rushed to such an extent that it was hard to enjoy them. Haruka and Komari I feel were especially affected by this, with Mio and Kud's routes not being that bad overall in my opinion. It's pretty clear that this season was just build up, especially with the last half dozen episodes or so pretty much hammering it into the viewer's head that SOMETHING is up (coincidentally, these were the best episodes of the show). Overall, this is a pretty forgettable season, and I definitely won't be re-watching this any time soon. |
| This episode gave me nothing but the feels Man!~, i did think JC was doing a shit job in the start but they somehow pulled it off a decent adaptation with a lot of love and hate it episodes. But that teaser at the end How long must i wait?! |

| Very cheesy, I like it. Can't wait for the second season. ihateeveryone said: Also, I wonder if this is gonna turn into a Clannad vs Little Busters war. Admit it -- they're both moe melodrama (their first season counterparts at least) but with different characters and situations. Friendship vs Family? Lol |

| I really liked this episode and how everyone gives Riki support and encouragement as the new leader. There were a lot things said about first season but I for one really enjoyed it manly because of the Little Busters! themselves, I liked every member and they made this Anime for me. There the type of people you wish you can hang out and be friends with. Now its time for Refrain and see what Little Busters! can really do. I can't wait. |

Yeah like why would you change your avatar just because some asshole doesn't like it? Anyway, 10/10 for this anime. Also, I like how someone already dropped Refrain and gave it a 1 if you look at the stats. I guess he's from the future LOOOOOOOL, really? |

| Little Busters Season 1 has finally finished up. All in all, it was a pretty bad adaptation. Not the worst, but very far from the best. Well, i have higher hopes for Refrain. I still think they should have ended it with Riki falling asleep because of his narcolepsy as a lead in to Season 2. spoilers for Refrain I wonder how they'll start Seasoon 2 off, because it looks like that maybe Kurugaya's route might also be included. anyway, i gave the VN a 8.5/10 but the anime only gets a 6/10 from me. :/ |

| I'll miss watching the opening. I like the theme of Riki stepping out of Kyousuke's shadow and making his own way in the world. They have so much bromance that I kept thinking that Mio would just pop up between them, haha. And apparently the secret to winning in baseball is to have a bunch of cute girls on your team. Refrain better be good, or else... I'll regret not having played the VN first, haha. |

 What "Adolescence" do you have? Do you remember "Childhood"? The irreplaceable one existed there. |
| This series was pretty good I guess. I just wish Kengo would've been this gung-ho during the first 95% of the series! Dude's hilarious when he's actually involved and enthusiastic! There's still a lot of questions to be answered and things to be covered, but hopefully the second season will cover them. The little teaser for "Refrain" looked really interesting, I'll be sure to tune into that when it comes out! But yeah, all in all a pretty good anime. 7/10 |

| Say what you want...this was average at best. You can't rate what now is a prequel "good" just because you have very high expectations for the sequel. I've been reading this for weeks and it has been old since the first time. The recent past episodes have had "refrain" tossed in more times than I can count and that somehow makes what is currently happen better? These 26 episodes were very average although (of course) necessary to watch the sequel. Doesn't change the fact that THIS was not up to par. Maybe the next arc will be but save that talk for those threads. I'll say it again, this content of the LB! story isn't "amazing" because of Refrain. That just makes refrain good. As far as anime is considered maybe this will be like a Clannad where the second season greatly outshines the first. Introductory and then emotional drama avalanche. The difference, Clannad's S1 was still very good. 6/10 I don't see this breaking a cumulative 8. |

| omg~ @-@ REFRAIN! |
     |
| Quite the anime this is. I think the strong underline of "the secret of the world" pulled me through this one, but there were worthwhile moments throughout the character arcs that made it somewhat pleasant to watch. I stopped myself from going to recent episode discussions cause of the lovely spoilers for Refrain but for what was hyped up for this show, it was unimpressive overall and disappointing. I'll definitely pick up the next season though,- oh ffs, I'll admit that the teaser at the end of this episode had me damn intrigued. To me, this is the mediocre wishy washy prologue to the real story. 7/10 |
 |
| Well at the very least this series kept me entertained. I've only been watching the anime so I don't know what to expect from Refrain, but the mood of that teaser just makes me feel like this is going to be a Clannad repeat for me (S1 being meh, S2 blowing me away). A 7/10 from me, definitely tuning in for the next season. |
 |
| never played the game so i only judge the anime and it was a pretty average show at best 7/10. |
 |
| I´m here for the last time, giving my final review of this serie. Episode rating: 3.5/5. Good aura, the emotions were well, nice baseball match (after all they won), well ending for the S1. Now, the most important part: Final Review Story: 7/10 Strong in various parts, but every arc was short and rushed. Art: 5/10 I didn´t noticed much enthusiasm with this. Some scenes looked like a 2001-2003 anime. Sound: 8/10 Key always did good soundtracks, and this wasn´t the exception. Cast voices also were good. Character: 7/10 There was good characters, but they didn´t gave too much importance to others. This also was affected by the short-duration arcs. Enjoyment: 8/10 I don´t have so much to say here. Only that if You´re a Key follower and You like his VNs, maybe you should like this. OVERALL: 7 Season 1 Final Score: 7. ---------------------------------- So, I have to say goodbye to all of You for a little time. I ´ll miss coming to the forum every week to discuss the weekly chapter. Also, goodbye Busters!, see ya later, maybe at the end of 2013 if we´re lucky... Goodbye everyone, I´ll see You in Refrain forum. ---------------------------------- Mission Complete. |
